    So just drop the topic.
    Well, I wasn’t suppose to drink that night because have to pick up my friend at 4 am.
    But I drank a bit and was still sober.
    Then we left at 2 something and I straight to my friend’s workplace.
    From the moment I step there, I start feel a bit tipsy as the alcohol start to go up.
    Waited 2 hours until like 4.30am then walk my friend back after she finish work.
    There something happened that night but couldn’t really remember.
    Some problem I caused there la and my friend was damn mad at me.

    Didn’t had chance to take any pictures of it because there customers coming in.
    Since that was our first day of Menu 2, everything was messy but all good in the end.
    Every dish came up nicely and went to customer smoothly.

    Today had Trevally fish’s dishes and we have to prepare one of them our creation.

    Then put in microwave without the lid for 4 mins.

    Photobucket
    Then put in microwave without the lid for 4 mins.
    During 2 mins, take out and stir then put back in for another 2 mins.

    Photobucket
    Then take out and put the lid on.

    Hey. Sorry for late updates.
    I was pretty busy and lazy to update my blog.
    Start off with Friday okay.

    Friday had Dietary Menu cookery assessment.
    I was in charge of dessert and I have to do Low Fat Vanilla Pannacotta.
    There a picture about it.

    Photobucket

    It was not that bad but taste yogurt.
    You know la; low fat stuff doesn’t always taste so good.
    Then at night go to work and cook dinner for the staff.
    I cooked curry chicken as I said on my previous post.
    Turn out pretty good and everyone said is nice.
    Then after work, we watched Olympic Open Ceremony.
    Watch for while, and then head back home.

    On Saturday, Sze Yee had potluck at her place.
    It suppose to be dinner time but she changed it to lunch time as is convenience for others to go back home.
    I went there quite early in the morning as need to prepare a lot of stuff.
    I overslept in the train and went few stations ahead.
    Thanks got not many station ahead, then quickly I take another side to go back.
    I cooked pork spare ribs, crème caramel and chocolate pudding and helped for curry chicken.
    There a lot of pictures but still with Sze Yee and she’s quite busy for now.
    So when I got the pictures, I will update again.
    There other foods like chicken wings and jelly.
    Everybody was bloated after eating.
    There quite a lot of food left and the kitchen were in the mess.
    Everybody started to leave after 4, one by one.
    Then left Jian Hao, Sze Yee and I talking around to pass time.
    Then I went back home around 11.30pm.
    And there no more train to head back to city.
    I have to take taxi back to city.
    It costed me bloody $44.60.
    And I got not enough cash!
    Shot of 2 bucks, thank god the taxi driver was good enough. :)
    I went work place as promised to go back to drink with them.
    Drink but didn’t got really drunk.
    I was still able to walk back home.

    Then Sunday, I got a bit hangover and don’t feel good.
    Just before I went work, I feel much better.
    Working was good and nice.
    Then went back home and burn midnight oil to finish up my assignment.

    Today I was in soup department.
    I made chicken stock and reheating spicy chicken soup.
    It doesn’t taste that great and I have to adjust it with some seasoning.
    The day was alright.
    Now I have to head and do my workplan for tomorrow.
    Toodles.

    Men, working in Sawasdee can make people drunk every week.

    Then next morning got slightly hangover.

    I can’t really remember what happen tho and I don’t even remember how I got back home.

    Later on, went to work and I still feeling a bit shit.

    Getting hangover is really sucked.

    Then now online I’m waiting for dell person come and fix my laptop again as my keyboard got problem.

    After work, it was drinking session.
    As I’m new worker, they all aimed me. :(
    End up, I drank 5 bottles of beer and I a bit tipsy.
